- Rabbi/Mathematician Elie Feder's Gematria Refigured rescues this ancient tool from many of the naive or abusive uses it has been put through which have tended to give it a reputation in the eyes of many thoughtful and careful exegetes. His work greatly helps set gematria science back on a more firm foundation by providing both persuasive examples and by drawing general interpretive principles from those examples.
- Section 4.1 of Forward and Reverse Gematria are Very Different Beasts addresses "Jewish and Hebraic Christian Use of, and Perspectives on, Gematria" in general, with emphasis on Feder's work.
